A Customized Yunnan Tour with China Discovery

-- Nicki and her friends from New Zealand 7 Days Yunnan Trip

Our guest Nicki, from New Zealand, working as a foreign language teacher at a school in Guangzhou. She and her friends just finished a week-long trip to Yunnan in the end of March and early April this year under the arrangement of China Discovery. The tour was wonderful, and very informative and ticked all our boxes. Before they set off for Yunnan, their travel consultant Evelyn from China Discovery also helped them book two local performances in Foshan and Guangzhou. "Right from the outset Evelyn made it very easy for us with clear English communication, easy payment instructions and prompt responses to any queries or alterations to the tour that we may have had." There are some of their travel photos and experiences, as well as real feedback with this 7 days private Yunnan trip to share with you.

Day 1~3 Lijiang - Discover Ethnic Naxi Kingdom with Sandy

Sandy, our host in Lijiang, is a kind, gentle person who is well educated and has a wealth of knowledge regarding China's history and is happy to answer any questions and share his knowledge with us. He was extremely patient with us and helped us negotiate any hurdles we may have come across. His own personal stories of his time growing up in China were such an eye opener and we felt privileged that he would share these with us.

Enjoying Leisure Time in Lijiang Old Town

There was an issue when booking into our hotel in Lijiang but Sandy handled this expertly for us. The hotel was in a wonderful location and had all the facilities we required. The breakfast was great. The lunches that we had during our stay in Lijiang were wonderful, an abundance of food and a vast array of plates. We were left bulging at the seams following these meals.

The driver who worked with Sandy was another great addition to the tour. He was courteous and a skilled driver, was always there waiting for us and we felt very comfortable & safe with and he fitted in well with our group.

Day 4~5 Shangri-La - Find Lost Horizon Scenery with Aten

Aten in Shangri-la was also a very skilled tour guide, who had plenty of his own stories to tell. He obviously enjoys meeting new people and is easy to build a relationship with. Aten also ensured our check in was smooth and that we were at our allotted places in good time. It was good to have the same driver as we had with Sandy.

Day 6~7 Kunming - Enjoy City of Eternal Spring with Sophie

Sophie met us at the airport in Kunming and we basically hit the ground running. Sophie didn't waste time, and had us on and off shuttles with great haste. Our flight out of Kunming was delayed and Sophie was instantly organising additional sights for us to make the most of this extra few hours. She also did an excellent job of having us at the airport on time, checking us in and maintaining contact to ensure we had arrived at the correct departure gate.

Worry-free Tour Experience with China Discovery

It was such a relief to have someone waiting to greet us at each and every airport, which took all the hassle out of landing in a foreign country with language barriers and unfamiliar ways of booking taxis etc.

Sandy did a top class job, he was extremely knowledgeable, well educated and his English was very good. He was very helpful and patient with us. We highly recommend Sandy.

Thanks again for all your help, Evelyn, you and your company have been amazing.
